Youtube, Twitch, Porn and Virtual Reality are Happy Together Clapway

The advent of virtual reality is opening up some interesting doors. Through one of these doors, we come to the realm of porn. Already, developers and fans alike are thinking of all the X-rated possibilities that VR will offer. With companies like YouTube and Twitch establishing their presence in the live streaming market, a new type of industry looks to be imminent.

PORNOGRAPHY TO HELP POPULARIZE VIRTUAL REALITY

Porn and technology have always had a close relationship. Pay-per-view, VHS, the internet, and others were popular in their own regard, but porn certainly didn’t hurt their reputation. Now, virtual reality seems to be the latest technology that will get the golden touch of pornography. The launch of headsets like Oculus Rift, Samsung Gear, Google Cardboard and others will make VR available to the masses. Fans of pornography will be able to get a heightened experience in VR and performances within the realm will be open to a new format and industry.

YOUTUBE AND TWITCH WILL BRING PORN LIVE

One of the more promising aspects of virtual reality porn is the ability of live streaming. With sites like YouTube and Twitch popularizing the live stream, consumers will feel a part of the show. No longer will it feel like you are just watching an old, 2D image on the sidelines. YouTube Live and Twitch will transport you into the experience. Add 360-degree cameras into the mix, and one might just forget they’re in virtual reality. What’s great about this concept is that the necessary parts are already in place. For example, gamers using Twitch can pay streamers to try out certain things in a game. Think of it as a virtual tip for their efforts. Live porn streams could very well adopt the same concept. The imagination can be left to you, but combining YouTube’s live streaming with Twitch’s unique monetization efforts, and the industry will all but explode.

WILL VR PORNOGRAPHY BE TOO REAL?

It’s easy to think about the benefits of virtual reality pornography, but surely it will have some negative side effects. Watching a live VR orgy on something like YouTube has never been attempted. Who know’s what kind of physical, or psychological effects will result in this intensity. Will people be able to differentiate between the concrete  and the virtual? It will be interesting to see what happens, but one can assume there will be a few broken hearts in the process.
